Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Look forward to meeting in person in December. Will touch base before then. Have a ball on your upcoming cruise! Doug
  2. @LACruiser88, just off 30 days on the Enchanted and 2 shows were fantastic, znd we are not show people. We saw Rock Opera 3x snd Spotlight Bar 3x, once on every 10 day cruise. If you haven't seen them on previous trips snd if they are on Majestic might be worth checking out. Best we have ever seen including NY, London! We are joining you on the December 1 trip around SA and are leaving soon for the 32 day Sapphire trip to Hawaii and South Pacific. Seems our tastes in travel align quite well, oh yeah, we are also booked on the Island 60 day in March, 2026! Safe travels. Doug
  3. Just a small correction, all bottles of wine must be in your carry on, not in your checked bags, othetwise you will be called to the naughty room!
  4. Yes you have too call to use gift cards to buy internet. I did that yesterday. Not sure about prepay gratuities, you can ask if you call. Doug
  5. We also just completed internet purchase on our upcoming cruises but we did have to call in to get it as we were using gift cards. We were able to complete the purchases at the discounted $7.50 per day elite benefit price. Hope this helps someone. The first cruise was 51 days around South America and the second was 54 days to the South Pacific, New Zealand and Australia round trip LA, so it was a significant savings. Doug
  6. Not sure, have seen some comments in this thread that it might be new standard. I dure hope not. Doug
  7. We did the Chef's Table this summer on Royal and it was horrible! Couldn't believe it was so bad nearly inedible and this was perhaps our 7th or 8th CT. It was veal or salmon for the main, Both covered in caviar! Veal, caviar, really? Think the cost was about $110 each with wine a real bust. Doug
  8. Has no one heard of zip lock baggies? It's really none of their business. Sometimes in the Crown Grill my unfinished steak magically appears in my refrigerator for breakfast or lunch the next day! Doug
  9. Leaving my towel on the floor and it's still there when I come back! Doug
  10. I guess you have learned you were wrong about freeplay as you have not made any comments to the contrary. Many of us expected you to come back once you figured it out. Happy cruising and good luck in the casino. Doug
  11. We have sailed on the Majestic 3 or 4 times, already one of our favs and are are booked on her for the 51 day all the way around South America, LA to FLL December 1, 2024. Hope she keeps her good vibes! Doug
  12. I think you misunderstand. Assume you have $600 in free play. You spin 600 times for $1, free play gone, 0 points earned. Let's further asdume you continue to play, with whatever $'s you have remaining from your free play. On your 601st spin at $1, you WILL earn points on that that point forward, still no money charged to your room/account,. You will earn points on all you spend with the free play money residual but not the initial free play spins. It just doesn't work the way you described. I had this exact conversation with the Casino Manager on our recent 3 weeks on the Royal Princess. Suggest you do too! Doug
  13. And a couple of $'s to your steward wouldn't hurt!
  14. Absolutely worth upgrading if you are a wine drinker. Below Premier just generic wine, cab, chard, pinot, no name or info, not very good even for house wines. Doug
  15. Typical Princess, on Royal a month ago room steward handled it! Doug
